What is Trending?
By using Box Office Mojo, a website which lists the top grossing films within each genre, we can view what horror films within the Thriller/Slasher genre are doing well; we can use the top trending films as inspiration to what our Opening Title Sequence is going to look like and what elements we can include.
Based upon the lifetime grossing of Thriller/Slasher films, the top 3 favourites of all time are all Scream films. This tells us that using Scream to inspire our OTS will ensure that we sell our film to the audience within the first opening minutes.
